407 Echmore (2)

Murhausk means "autumn in the fields" in WikiAsian language.

July is the most beautiful season of the year, when the sky is wild, the green grass is closed, and the towering Altai snow-capped mountains meet the Kugit Plateau in the north, forming a natural upturned slope.

The top of the mountain covered with snow all the year round is white, but the red and bright crimson moon blooms all over the mountainside.

A striking layer of verdant grass covers the earth like an endless green carpet, extending to the end of the transition between heaven and earth.

Circles of small lakes shimmer silver in the sun, and from time to time there are birds flying by the lakeside,

Among the dotted bushes, the moist black cold soil below is occasionally exposed, and the refreshing wind blows people in a comfortable mood.

The horses' hooves awakened the slumbering mountains, and a group of black-armored cavalry marched along the mountain path, with two Samor guard scouts taking the brunt of the way ahead.

"Grand Duke, after this ridge, there is the Altai Snow Mountains in front of you!" Hukochili reined in his horse at the mountain pass in front of him, and turned back to report that behind him was a fatter young man, with a blooming white thorn coat of arms engraved on his body, and was keenly looking after the towering snow-capped mountains in the distance

After Zhivadin received an urgent military report from Aychmoor in the north, the fat man sent people to the Salonian army that was resting in the north, and issued an urgent assembly order.

Ordered the Salonian army to quickly go north to Murhausk to create the illusion of a two-sided attack on the Ryldian army, which was assembling in the steppe and preparing for a counterattack.

On the other hand, they sent people to arrange ships to quickly send the Kugit envoy Scelis back to the Kugit grassland.

I hope that Scelis can bring the information back to the Kujit who are in Alchmor in time,

At the same time, in order to hide people's eyes, the fat man who traveled with the ship only took 20 Samor Guards cavalry, disembarked and landed in the southern Kudan, and crossed the Kudan area.

Then follow the hidden mountain road into the northern border of Murhausk,

Along the way, the fat man received several more reports from Salon that the army of Ryordian in the north had begun to assemble in large numbers, and in just ten days,

In addition to the few knights who were originally withdrawn from Achmore, two main knights were transferred from the Paraven region, and the number of knights increased from 120,000 at the beginning to 180,000.

The number of troops has greatly exceeded the 130,000 kugit army in the Achmore area, and it may launch a counteroffensive against Echmore at any time,

Now the fat man can only hope that Scelis can bring the information back to Kugit in time, otherwise, he will have to carry out the second set of plans in advance,

In order to curb the momentum of the Kugit boom, Vicchia will adopt a policy of uniting the southern Ruds,

But this is tantamount to declaring war on the most powerful country on the mainland,

The newly pacified Vikia will be involved in the war again, which the fat man does not want to see,

In the fat man's plan, even if Vikia wants to fight, it will have to wait until March next year,

The army at home needs to rest, the economy in the north needs to recover, and the people need time to settle down from the continuous wars.

The west needs time to develop and rectify, and the expansion of trade routes in the south has also reached the most critical juncture.

With the unification of the kingdom, these problems that have not had time to be considered in the past are placed in front of the fat man's eyes at the same time,

The fat man knows in his heart that the current Vikia is not suitable for war,

It's like a patient recuperating who really doesn't have enough strength to fight a strong man

It takes at least half a year of time and preparation for himself to be able and qualified to be a real sect with the mainland overlord Rui Erdian.

However, Ryerdian was aggressive against the Kugit in the northern steppes, and the form of the war was very unfavorable to Vikia, so that the fat man had to worry about how to buy time.

Once Kugit falls, the army of Ryordian will inevitably take advantage of the situation to wave south.

Whether from the perspective of military strategy or political strategy, Vikia is the first to bear the brunt.

Lips and teeth are cold, Vikia and Kugit are a pair of difficult brothers,

No matter how dangerous it is, now you have to fight it,

The move of sending troops directly is unrealistic,

According to the latest intelligence, the army of Ryerdian has been redeployed

Now on the border line of Vekia, it is not the northern army of Rui Erdian, which has been broken in courage, but the tens of thousands of elite cavalry that have just been transferred from the Paravon region.

For the temporary changes in Rui Erdian's army, the fat man is helpless for the time being

No matter how brave and good the Samorian army is, it is impossible to win with the cavalry in the vast steppes with the infantry alone

Except for the crime of breach of contract, it is no longer helpful

If you don't enter the tiger's den, you can get the tiger!

The fat man decided to go to the northern steppe himself.

After entering the Murhausk region, the pine forest in front of you is green, the scenery is picturesque, although it is a little hard, but it is also pleasing to the eye.

Especially the Altai Snow Mountains in the distance, like a towering giant encompassing the entire basin,

The white mountain tops reach into the sky, and just the exposed half of the mountain range has already made the fat man who has never seen a snow-capped mountain secretly speechless.

With such a huge mountain range, it is no wonder that it can become the boundary between the two countries,

Thinking of this destination, Molshuusk Castle is located on the snowy peak pass at the junction of the Altai Snow Mountains and the Kugit Plateau.

The cold climate makes this castle on the top of the mountain have an alias of "Lonely White Castle".

The fat man couldn't help but kick a little in his heart,

The form of Vekia is like this lonely white castle, standing on the cusp of snow-capped mountains and plateaus.

One line of life, one line of death!

"The Grand Duke has arrived!" Salon, who was waiting at the bottom of the mountain, saw the black scout cavalry turning out of the mountain road in the distance, and hurriedly greeted him with a dozen guards behind him.

Salon's Northland Legion is recorded in the establishment of the legion headquarters under the direct command of the fat man, and the dozen or so guards behind him are all selected by the fat man himself.

Seeing the figure of the fat man, he hurriedly bent down and saluted the fat man.

The fat man waved his hand to everyone, and in the company of Salon and others, he went up along the mountain road at the base of the rugged snow-capped mountain.

The flowers are blooming at the bottom of the mountain, the breeze blows in the green mountains and forests, the birds sing and the trees are roaring, and the mountain springs jingle out of the cracks in the rocks, and the white waves are rushing happily in the valley

The fat man who watched it forgot for a moment that he was climbing a snowy mountain

Just past the mountainside, the scenery changes, and the green forest is still replaced by gray birch trees

White snow flakes also began to appear in the sky,

The temperature plummeted rapidly, and the cold people's teeth chattered constantly,

Everyone was a little less interested in enjoying the scenery for a while, and hurriedly put the cold clothes that had been prepared long ago on their bodies.

The sound of the wind quickly expanded, and after a while, it whistled, rolling up snowflakes and pouring them into everyone's necks.

The scenery in front of me has also changed from the ink color of the mountainside to a silver-white world.

Crystal-clear ice cubes hung upside down on the cliff wall, and the running mountain springs turned into ice

The heavy snow made it hazy and difficult to walk ahead, and under the guidance of the guide, the fat man walked in knee-high snow for about two hours, and suddenly saw the mountain sloped up in front of him and began to fall.

After walking for a while, I found a huge pass in front of me,

In the hazy wind and snow, a gray city wall not far away was revealed, and then, as if by magic, a section of Gross-style buildings with white walls and black roofs appeared at the end of the city wall.

The round wall pillars of black striped stone are particularly eye-catching against the whole white background.

"Quick, it's your lordship!" Several Samor soldiers who were waiting at the gate of the castle hurriedly lowered the drawbridge, "Grand Duke! This is Murhausk Castle! After this pass, it is the territory of the Kugit Khanate!" Salon, who led the way, pointed to the entrance to the castle

"I have ordered the people to boil hot water in the castle, and prepare the things that the lord ordered, you see, do you want to rest here for the night, and then go down the mountain tomorrow!"

The fat man looked up at the snowfall, and then at the pale and ugly faces of everyone, and felt that the Molhausk Castle in front of him was too tempting

Thinking of the hot water and delicious food, everyone looked at the fat man with a look of dismay

"Well, it's okay!" the fat man nodded, and after walking for more than two hours, most of the clothes on everyone's bodies had traces of being wet with snow.

Although the package is tight, this is a cold snow-capped mountain area after all.

Everyone's nose was cold below zero, frozen red, and one by one they opened their mouths wide, snoring and panting out.

Because of the higher terrain, it is more and more difficult to breathe.

Every time I inhale, the throat is like a blockage full of things, **spicy and uncomfortable,

The fat man knew that this was a sign of altitude sickness - this article was transferred from Shushu.86zw./shu/26394/4163005.html-, obviously everyone's body lĂŹ has also reached the limit, and it is not suitable to continue walking in this cold and cruel environment.

Seeing the fat man nodding, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly entered the castle to rest

This time, in order not to violate the agreement signed with Rui Erdian, the fat man is ready to disguise himself as a businessman to infiltrate Aichemore.

In this way, no matter how powerful the Raldian people are, they will never be able to find themselves among the tens of thousands of Vecchian smugglers.

After a night at Moorhausk Castle,

The fat man took the prepared caravan horses and set out on the road under the escort of several guards dressed as mercenaries.

Hukochili took the other guards to the same way, disguised as caravans and mercenaries to their destination.

In order to clear his connection with Virginia, the fat man did not go to the nearby Echmore road, but turned at the pass below the mountain.

With the pass issued by the Western Alliance in hand, he traveled along the western steppe to Tulga, the seat of the Kugit royal court.

There was no room for change in the situation of Achmore, and even if Celis told the Kugit higher-ups about the plan of the Ryerdian army to burn Mount Rudato, the most it would be to reduce some of the losses.

The army of Rui Erdian has taken advantage of the favorable time of retreat to form an absolute superiority in the local force.

The 100,000 tribal army of Kugit in the Achmore region, improvised can't compete with the 180,000 regular army of Ryerdian, which is armed to the teeth.

The fat man knows this very well, the Kugit people have no hope in Achmore,

Tulga, located in the rear, was the focus of this campaign,

Seeing the direction of things clearly from the complicated situation has become an instinct formed by fat people in recent years

The hinterland of the Kugit steppe

The "creaking" axles of the carriage rolled on the soft earth, pressing deep brown ruts,

The fat man was lying on the back of his freight carriage with a freight, his legs crossed, chewing a piece of grass in his mouth, squinting his little eyes, and looking simple.

There is not a trace of clouds in the sky, pure as blue crystals without any impurities, and the pale sky canopy is full of glass-like colors, extending to the end of the distant world, and finally turning into a dreamlike haze.

The earth is vast and picturesque, and the grass is like daisy,

The beautiful scenery in front of him couldn't help but make the fat man feel a little intoxicated, and suddenly thought that the world is like a chess, and he is just that chess piece.

Compared with this eternal and unchanging world, decades of life can be described as short and terrible,

War, glory, the clamor of thousands of troops! The monstrous power of the country seems to be like a farce under the gaze of heaven and earth,

The fat man raised his head, and a trace of confusion flashed in his eyes,

Who brought himself into the world from the twenty-first century, and for what purpose?

These strange questions that I had never thought about on weekdays suddenly popped up in my mind

"Silly fat man, you're lazy again!" A crisp female voice interrupted the fat man's musings, and then the curtain on the back of the carriage was lifted, revealing a youthful and lively face,

"Who said that I was thinking about something big!" The fat man showed a hint of embarrassment on his face, as if he was very afraid of this girl,

"Just a lazy person like you still want to do big things" The silly and silly look made the girl in front of her burst out laughing, and laughed more and more, "Don't think I don't know, you are a legendary smuggler,

I saw weapons and armor in your cargo, and now that Tulka is at war, you must have gone to sell weapons.

You know that my father is the most cowardly, and the family has strict orders not to get involved in these troublesome things, and if I tell him this, you will definitely be kicked out of the combined caravan!"

If you don't want me to tell me about you, you're going to have to treat me to a roast leg of lamb when you light the campfire at night! I saw your hired mercenaries bring you this last night!"

After saying that, the girl's face was full of greed, stretched out half of her small and ruddy tongue and licked her lips, and ran away happily like a lark.

"This crazy girl! if you dare to say anything, no one cares!" The fat man shook his head with a wry smile on the corner of his mouth, as if he was helpless against the girl's ridicule,

The fat man who wallows in the scheming and blood,

Faced with an ordinary girl who has no scheming, I don't know how to deal with it,

This is a combined caravan that the fat man met in the western steppes,

Since the annexation of the Western Alliance, the Mao Mo family, with the strong support of the Commercial Alliance, began to form their own caravans, and the fat man met a small caravan leader named Mao Mo Wenlis,

Seeing the pass signed by the Mao Mo family in the fat man's hand, Mao Mo Wenlis naturally regarded the fat man as his own person, and invited the fat man to join his caravan.

Because the destination is Tulga, the fat man happily agreed,

In the past two days, maybe the fat man has always squatted on his carriage and moved lazily, like a miser who guards his belongings and never leaves.

Mao Mo Wenlis's sixteen-year-old second daughter, Mao Mo Allen, always likes to run around and make a joke,

Looking at Mao Mo Allen, who is as happy as a bird, the fat man sometimes feels a little emotional,

His age is only 20 years old, if it is according to the regular aristocracy, it is only an age that has just passed the coming-of-age ceremony, why does he seem so old-fashioned, not at all as lively and relaxed as young people should have.

In the evening, the caravan camped at a small lake, where a bright bonfire was lit, the flames dissipated the fatigue of the travelers with weary enthusiasm, and the enticing aroma of roast lamb shanks came to the nostrils.

The cool breeze blows on the face, bringing a hint of late autumn coolness

The fat man looked at the crowd laughing in front of the fireworks, and suddenly had a glimmer of realization in his heart,
